Unlike the stained glass panels around it, this sheet is a design drawing for a mural of the Ascension, the moment Christ rises into heaven as described in the Acts of the Apostles. Artists working on large church commissions often produced studies like this to settle a composition before any paint or glass was cut. The drawing shows how the figure, the gathered disciples, and the sky would be arranged across the wall or window. Its value lies in showing the planning behind the finished work, including choices of pose and grouping that the final piece would carry forward.
